- 2 Cup potato, diced
- 1 Cup heavy Cream (see Note 1)
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme or dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- Salt to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ Cup extra virgin olive oil
- ½ Cup pizza cheese, grated
Preheat oven at 180-degree Celsius. Grease a baking dish with a teaspoon of olive oil.
Peel and dice the potatoes into bite size pieces.
Combine cream and all the remaining ingredients except cheese in a mixing bowl. Whisk to mix nicely and make a sauce.
Add diced potatoes in the cream mixture and stir to coat potatoes with the sauce. Sprinkle grated cheese on top.
Transfer potato into the baking dish. Bake in the oven for 40 - 50 minutes or till potatoes are cooked and a golden crust is formed on top.
Serve Potato Tray Bake with toasted focaccia bread and eggs of your choice.
- Note 1) Use a good quality, unsweetened fresh or heavy cream for making cheesy potatoes.
- Add salt cautiously to the cream sauce, as cheese has a salty flavour.
- In my 52 litres OTG, the Indian variety of potatoes takes 60 minutes at 180-degree celsius in the middle rack to get perfectly baked with a gooey sauce and a golden crust on top.
